Answer:

The arguments that could be used to challenge the idea of ​​using wind power to provide electricity to the whole country is that there is a difficulty in capturing wind, wind power causes visual and sound impacts, as well as an impact on fauna.

Explanation:

Wind energy is a widely used method for obtaining power through wind power, which drives windmill and windmill-like mechanisms connected to a generator that produces electricity.

The main advantage of wind energy is that it is considered a clean energy, that is, obtained from renewable sources and without generating any kind of polluting waste during its production and consumption.

Although wind energy is one of the best options for obtaining energy from renewable and clean sources, it is possible to see some negative points of this technique. These negative points are:

  • Difficulty catching wind: Because it is totally dependent on wind and air currents, it is possible that an unfavorable climate will compromise production;
  • Visual Impact: The installation of wind turbines can cause major changes in the landscape, either due to the space required to install the equipment or the size of the necessary mechanisms;
  • Animal Impact: Modifications related to the installation of wind energy equipment change the habitat of several animals, especially migratory birds, so that they have to adapt;
  • Sound impact: Wind energy production is very noisy, which can frighten animals and disrupt the daily lives of people living in areas near the wind farm.

There might not be ample enough wind to power all the electricity in the United States and in some places there might not be wind at all so people wouldn't be able to have electricity.

A 1.2 L weather balloon on the ground has a temperature of 25°C and is at atmospheric pressure (1.0 atm). When it rises to an el
icang [17]

Answer:

The temperature of the air at this given elevation will be 53.32425°C

Explanation:

We can calculate the final temperature through the combined gas law. Therefore we will need to know 1 ) The initial volume, 2 ) The initial temperature, 3 ) Initial Pressure, 4 ) Final Volume, 5 ) Final Pressure.

Initial Volume = 1.2 L ; Initial Temperature = 25°C = 298.15 K ; Initial pressure = 1.0 atm  ; Final Volume = 1.8 L ; Final pressure = 0.73 atm  

We have all the information we need. Now let us substitute into the following formula, and solve for the final temperature ( T_2 ),

P_1V_1 / T_1 = P_2V_2 / T_2,

T_2 = P_2V_2T_1 / P_1V_1,

T_2 = 0.73 atm * 1.8 L * 298.15 K / 1 atm * 1.2 L = ( 0.73 * 1.8 * 298.15 / 1 * 1.2 ) K = 326.47425 K,

T_2 = 326.47425 K = 53.32425 C

Which of the following atoms would have a charge of +1?
erica [24]

Answer: An atom with 6 protons, 5 electrons, and 7 neutrons

Explanation: In this case, neutrons do not matter as they have a charge of 0, or no charge. A proton has a charge of +1 and an electron has a charge of -1. Since there are 6 protons, the total charge of the protons would be +6. Since there are 5 electrons the total charge of the electrons would be -5. +6 - 5 would result in a charge of +1. This means that this atom would have an overall charge of + 1. Basically, if there is one more proton than electron, then the overall charge of the atom will be +1 but if there is one more electron than proton, then the overall charge of the atom will be -1.
